anyway, movie was funny, really funny in a few parts, and missed the mark or went on too long in others. it was alright. it was certainly better than Anchorman. also, good to see mike judge basically play butthead for an hour and a half.

I love how this movie is totally a mess, and was most likely completed in a highly compromised form, perhaps edited against judges wishes or maybe without his input. At least, that's how it plays. Yet even as a mess it is funnier and more otm than most comedies. Certainly significantly better than Extract.

It started off boring and slow, with Not Sure trying to bullshit everyone with a bunch of smart talk: 'Blah blah blah. You gotta believe me!' That part of the trial sucked! But then the Chief J. just went off. He said, 'Man, whatever! The guy's guilty as shit, we all know that!'

that's all well and good but I really do not feel like this movie was intended to be any kind of serious social commentary. like on one hand maybe there's something to making an American Gladitor the President in an era when people were seriously asking if Schwarzenegger could make a White House run, on the other there's the fact that Terry Crews as President is fucking hilarious.
people tried to criticize Office Space along similar lines, but again I always felt like Judge was just doing something funny rather than something insightful. hence the way Peter is constantly painted as being lazy and kind of a whiner. KotH, same thing...it makes fun of good ol' boys and Southeners and also sorta extolls their values. I don't think that Judge is trying to do cutting edge satire here.

oh sure it is to some degree but I saw it as being a lot more absurd than derisive. In my opinion "I didn't like its entitled tone" is a lot less important than whether or not you found it funny

I watched this a couple of years ago and was not impressed by the quality of the satire, which was predicated on similar ideas to those long held by racists, except "The Yellow/Brown Peril and Destruction of the White Race" was replaced by "The Proletarian Peril and Destruction of the Educated Elites".

It's a terrifyingly prescient and occasionally very funny film ruined for many people because of a totally unnecessary Eugenics 101 sequence that they stuck at the beginning as if society's decline required a theory.
